Movie review
From Time Out New York
Things seem bad for Todd Anderson (Hamilton) when his job—managing a call center for novelty products—is outsourced to India. Insult is added to curry-flavored injury when he must commute to India to train his replacement, Purohit N. Virajnarianan. Culture shock sets in, but Todd slowly begins to learn about his new home, even as he teaches his replacements to speak with a nasal Midwestern drawl. Picture Office Space, but shot in Mumbai and not funnyAuthor: Drew Toal
Time Out New York Issue 626: September 27–October 3

A fantastic gem of a film, cannot believe I missed this first time round. After watching Inception and Toy Story 3 and being, well, a little disappointed, this came as a huge welcome relief.
I won't spoilt the plot or film but for a lighthearted, natural and lovely film you cannot go wrong with this. Highly recommended. - Report as inappropriate
